Quinton Carter was a star sophomore for the Oklahoma football team, minoring in nonprofit-organized studies when he started his own nonprofit organization.

Serving Others through Unity and Leadership (SOUL) was the name of his group. It featured a football camp for youth that integrated classwork, good eating habits and making smart decisions.

Imagine the embarrassment the do-gooder Carter, now a Broncos safety, felt March 9 when he was charged with three felony counts of a fraudulent act against a gaming casino in North Las Vegas.

Carter had been accused of placing three $5 chips on a craps table after the dice were rolled.

Apparently, it was all a big misunderstanding. Carter tweeted Monday his case had been dismissed.

“I was confident that when the facts came out I would be cleared,” Carter tweeted Monday. “Today all charges were dropped and the case was dismissed. So thankful that the truth prevailed and that I can put this whole thing behind me.”

Decker tries showbiz. Broncos receiver and magazine cover boy Eric Decker is getting married this summer to country music star Jessie James.

The E! network will chronicle their lives in a reality show called: “Love and Other Contact Sports: Eric and Jessie.” Decker received the blessing of Broncos boss John Elway for the show.

“To each his own,” said Elway, the Broncos’ executive vice president of football operations. “I don’t think that’s going to affect (his football). I know Eric Decker and how hard he works and what football means to him.”

Elway then called on his own marriage experiences. He was divorced and is remarried.

“Obviously, when you’re going to get married, there are two sides,” he said. “There is give and take in a marriage. I kind of take my hat off to him, the fact that he’s gone ahead and agreed to that.”

Plan B for Clady? Broncos left tackle Ryan Clady is coming off shoulder surgery and is protesting his contract situation by staying away from the team’s offseason program.

With the draft starting Thursday, will the Broncos consider a backup plan in case Clady’s issues don’t get resolved?

“Those are things that are brought up,” Elway said.”Every different situation is brought up and where they fall.

“I really think that eventually we’re going to be in good shape with Ryan, and he’s going to be back this year. I still feel like we’re going to get (a contract extension) done with Ryan. It’s not a big concern of mine.”

Executive Elway, on QB Elway. How would Elway the football operations boss handle Elway the player who refused to play for the Baltimore Colts as the No. 1 pick in the 1983 draft?

“Elway in the position I’m in, as executive vice president of football operations, would have had a much better football organization than the one Elway the player would have been stepping into,” said the Hall of Fame former Broncos quarterback. “That’s why I don’t think that will ever happen with us.”

Indeed, in 1984, Colts owner Robert Irsay moved the Colts’ franchise from Baltimore to Indianapolis.

Mike Klis was with The Denver Post from Jan. 1, 1998 before leaving in 2015 to join KUSA 9News. He covered the Rockies and Major League Baseball until the 2005 All-Star break, when he was asked to start covering the Broncos.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Tyreek Hill didn’t know what to do when he started hearing thousands of people in Arrowhead Stadium chanting his name, even as he stood all alone on the frozen turf waiting for the punt.
